Lifestyle Photos with Heart and Fur

June 30, 2025

They’re your shadow, your snuggle buddy, your snack thief, and your soft place to land after a long day. Your pet isn’t just part of the household—they’re part of your story. So when you’re investing in photos that reflect your life, your love, your people… why wouldn’t you include them?

Whether you’re booking family photos, a couples session, or lifestyle branding that captures your real life, bringing your pet along makes your session more honest, more joyful, and so much more you.

As a Dog Owner, I Totally Get It

I’m a proud dog mama myself (hi, Oliver! 🐶), and I’ve photographed countless wagging tails, wet noses, and even a few skeptical cats. It just takes a little patience, a few treats, and lots of love to help your furry friend shine on camera—and I have a few tricks up my sleeve to help them feel comfortable. (And yes, I do know how to make dogs smile—it’s a gift.)

Pets Are Our First (and Fur-ever) Babies

For many of us, our pets were our first babies—before the kids came along. Or maybe they are the kids! They’ve been there through life’s chaos and calm, so including them in your photo session helps tell the full story of this chapter in your life.

Years from now, you’ll be so thankful to have those portraits of the sweet face who greeted you at the door every day, curled up beside you when you needed comfort, and followed you from room to room like your loyal little shadow.

Capturing Personality + Connection

Pets bring so much personality into a session. Whether it’s a dog’s curious head tilt, a cat’s sass, or that tail-thumping excitement the moment you say their name—those little moments are pure magic.

They’re part of the heartbeat of your home. Why not celebrate that?

Tips for a Paws-itively Great Photo Experience

  • Bring their favourite treats or toys (yes, bribery is encouraged)
  • A little walk before your session helps burn off those zoomies
  • Worried about how they’ll behave? Don’t be. I’ve worked with everything from hyper doodles to shy seniors—and everything in between. We always find a groove.

Dog Days of Summer – Pet Sessions Are Here!

This summer, I’m offering Limited Edition Dog Days of Summer Sessions—and these are all about your four-legged bestie. No humans in front of the lens, just paws, charm, and a whole lot of cuteness.

These pet portraits will take place at two beautiful outdoor settings in Kitchener – Rockway Gardens and Grand River Trail, and they’re the perfect way to update your pup’s photo (or finally get one that’s not blurry on your phone).

It’s a fun and meaningful way to celebrate their one-of-a-kind spirit.
